Also as we were exploring options, I also found conversations with partners/ex-owners in acquired groups to be very helpful. Was everything as promised? Is everything as expected? Given the chance, would you do the same thing again? etc.

FWIW: We retained pre-purchase AR and real estate along with associated debt. By contract, the buyer leased the properties from us with FRR if we decided to sell them.

Good for you OP, sounds like its what you want.

I'm late to the thread but I'll play devil's advocate. It sounds like you are way too clueless on your profitability. If you just want out that's all good, but I would hate to sell before knowing more about my own true accounting.

2ndly, why not open a 3rd of your own and then hire someone else to run it? If you are selling 2 and opening a 4th and 5th location for someone else, it sure sounds like you could just not sell and open them yourselves. Just some late in the game food for thought.

$1.5 mil at 40 is not a lot IMO. Yes it sets you up okay for an okay retirement. But its not $5 mil and its certainly not $10 mil setting you up comfortably for an early retirement.

What's your real plans for making money in your mid to late 40s?

But you are working for someone else that whole time, someone that sees it as more profitable than you are.

I’m just looking at it like I would. I’m in my early 40s with a business close enough in numbers. I’d sell, if I could make enough to retire or make enough to be FIRE plus afford to have enough money to invest in something else.

If they can pay you almost $2 mil plus $250k a year (your suggested income now) imo you are either under evaluating, not profiting enough, or C I don’t know.

Im not saying it’s a bad idea at all. But I’m also shocked so many here are suggesting selling.

Just here to say props. You can always cut these things a million different ways, but if you get out and you're happy and can go about your life, you won. Good for you!

One last thing and I hope it’s not too late. Make sure you have a hard number to close out your liability to use in negotiations if they’re not picking that up. Tailing off insurance can be a big number depending on your specialty and insurance.

Is this a DSO sale? I don't think I'd take any % in shares unless interest rates drop drastically.

Not a DSO, not a dentist. Different specialty.

whoever said he is stopping? he might trade stocks and invest in RE until he is 80! HE may not retire just on that transaction.

proves my points for years. This board is a complete anomaly and NOT what everyday americans face or struggle with daily aka low incomes living paycheck to paycheck.
